It is pretty amazing to me that some people really have to be told not to bring their expensive electronics into the shower. It's the shower, just wash your dirty ass and get out.

Ive brought my phone into the shower for decades and it has not caused any problems ever.

Tbf, since I have done this some 2-3 times:

Some special shampoos require you to be sitting there for like 10 minutes until it does its thing. I thought it was safe since water was no longer coming out of the shower, I didn't consider the high humidity environment.

Why not use that time to soap up and rinse off your body while you wait for the shampoo to do its thing? That's what I do.

Washing and rinsing doesn't take that long. I usually shave or clean the shower while I wait, and even that doesn't take long enough sometimes

Then I gotta condition and I feel slick

As a cyclist, that's leg shaving time.

I find it meditative... washing the nooks, rinsing, etc. I do, sometimes, run music outside on a counter with a door open.
